These should be the top 10 things to buy for your camera.

This is the second time I've been asked to review this camera cage. In my personal opinion this is a bad bass chamber cage. Remember there is a cage with a left handle and a right handle.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I should have bought this instead of my first pair of cages.

I love how compact the cage is for any DSLR and how easy it is to adjust. The camera feels pretty secure when installed. I should have bought this from the start and not other brands that couldn't adapt.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • A few small things

Very versatile: accessories

I like this cage. This allows me to use a minimum of hand held equipment or a lot of tripod equipment. Definitely a good buy. I had to buy an extension on the side to mount my 70D with a battery grip but without the grip it fit perfectly.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • -

Great quality at a great price

I read a few reviews before purchasing this cage and realized a lot of them weren't true. It's really easy to assemble, common sense actually, it's only 3 parts! I can also easily open the battery cover on my Canon 80D without blocking it! I love the feel and the quality and I love how I can add more in the near future! I look forward to using this when carrying a gimbal is too much and you want to run and shoot!

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product

Great price but no instructions

I bought this after reviewing DSLR Video Shooter on YouTube. It's big enough for my Nikon D600 but can also be used with my Sony a6000. Lots of bells and whistles and gadgets, but NO instructions. I think someone should already know how to assemble it before buying it? But the grip is a big plus and if I place it on the left I can hold the camera on either side and the results are much better. The top handle can be mounted on the front or back of the cage, allowing me to attach either a Rode…

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Nothing here

Great Canon camera and photo cage

This is a great cage for a DSLR. I was nervous looking at it online and wasn't sure how strong and safe it would be, but having it in person is exactly what I wanted. It attaches to the hot shoe on top of the camera to have a second point of contact and prevent all of the weight from holding the 15mm rail to the side. The bottom panel is small enough to open the battery compartment and remove the battery from the Canon t5i without disassembling the rig. It's also highly customizable, and you…

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Easy to maintain

I do not understand the trouble.

My friend was really mad about this and made me buy it to guarantee it's the best camera grip out there. I really don't understand what the fuss is about. Yes, it's neat, you can wrap anything anywhere, but there are things that annoy me like hell. First off, it takes a damn coin to even screw the tripod on and off, which is annoying as hell. I recently got a newer grip with a wheel you can turn to mount the camera, so much easier! Second, the screws began to loosen during the shoot, forcing me

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • I don't remember

Solid camera frame for Panasonic Lumix G7

Works great on my Lumix G7 (after a bit of tweaking). The threaded holes on the 145mm stem seemed to fall out of the wall a bit: the twin bolts holding the wooden grip to the stem were not easily tightened and then pulled only halfway out; I tried it on a 125mm rod (as well as another rod I had) and it worked great. Knowing I wasn't going to remove the grip, I used pliers to tighten the thumb grips. However, it does not sit completely flat and parallel to the bar (see image). But it's very…

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Crumpled

Good quality mount but not the perfect mount I was looking for

I was looking for a similar mount that would fit both my Canon t5i and 80D. It feels strong and durable while still being lightweight. The wooden grip is fine, but I'd like to put in some sort of rubberized pistol grip instead to give a better grip. to balance the setup. I gave it 4 stars because the two screws that attach the handle to the cage are difficult to tighten and don't hold for long (I'd prefer a single thumbscrew or handle that's easier to reach and big enough to hold you could…

  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
